Reviews summary
1940 Sherman Ave receives positive feedback for its convenient location, particularly for students at Northwestern University, being close to campus and the downtown Evanston area. Many residents appreciate the safety and well-maintained condition of the building. The staff is often mentioned as friendly and responsive, although management has been noted to be slower in addressing major maintenance issues, such as a gas leak. The building is described as quiet, which may appeal to remote workers or those seeking a peaceful environment. However, a few residents have raised concerns about noise pollution from adjacent areas, particularly the senior center nearby.
Amenities such as a fitness center, laundry facilities, and ample storage space are highlighted, making it suitable for various renter types, including young professionals and students. Some reviews mention older appliances and structural concerns like insufficient counter space in the kitchen or gaps between the wall and floor, which may not meet the expectations of those seeking modern features.
